Knifemaker84 Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I found this while out with the family near where the last outting was held. It was a couple weeks ago but I figured that I would post it anyway. Any info would be nice, from what I gather it is tourmaline in quartz. Not sure though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strapped Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 I have found similar black crystals in quartz south of Phoenix, AZ. I believe it is black tourmaline. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
